#cyberinfrastructure

A University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa researcher is shedding light on the possible future impact of a weather phenomenon called Atmospheric Blocking. The blocking events occur when large-scale high-pressure systems become stationary and divert the jet stream creating weather patterns that can be associated with record-breaking flooding or heat waves. 

The National Science Foundation has awarded a five-year, $6.5 million grant to the University of Hawaiʻi for a project aimed at enhancing cyberinfrastructure adoption, capacity and training in the Pacific.
